Once Upon A Time producer Edward Kitsis teased there would be at least one gay character this season. On last night’s episode, we discovered who the show’s first LGBT fairy tale character would be. While I was hoping for Robin Hood and his merry man being a band of gay archers, it actually was another warrior. It’s none other than Mulan (Jamie Chung) herself.

After being advised to tell the person you love how you feel about him or her before it’s too late, Mulan rushed to Aurora (Sarah Bolger) to reveal her true feelings. Before getting the courage to declare her love, Aurora tells her that Prince Phillip and her are expecting. #buzzkill.

“Dear @jamiechung1 & @SarahBolger, I’d give you each an Emmy for that. No foolin’. You made me cry & I had read the script! #AskOnce” – Ginnifer Goodwin (Snow White) via Twitter.

Hopefully, Mulan finds her happily ever after on OUAT. I’m intrigued how the writers will develop this storyline for the rest of Season 3. Check out the heartbreaking scene below.

Aw My Heart sank when she told her they were expecting like mannnnnnn that sucks but kudos to Jamie Chung for doing so well ….

Cool, I guess? I thought the scene was weird/forced, considering the writers had her loving Phillip last season. I was hoping the gay character would be Tink or someone more relevant.

I absolutely love this twist! I haven’t been able to catch up on OUAT in awhile so this is a pretty awesome plot direction. Although if @Ryan was correct, it would’ve been more of an impact with a different character who hadn’t had a previous known love interest.

@aerogens Yeah originally Mulan had developed a thing for Phillip prior to Aurora being woken up. The twist just seems like a weak attempt at getting the show a random gay badge, rather than revealing something that serves the story. Plus the scene itself was vague enough that people could argue that Mulan just meant to confess her feelings about Phillip to Aurora. The writers clearly left things open ended in case social conservatives affected the show’s ratings.

Why do they always have to force a gay storyline. im so over it.

Call me crazy but I thought she was going to tell Aurora that she liked Philip face to face just to be upfront. I didn’t even think that she had a crush on her lol. That is actually kinda strange.

Secondly. why the hell are they making Mulan a lesbian? So if a girl is brave and not afraid to fight she has to be a lesbian and can’t just be a powerful woman? Wrong message and lame twist.

I originally read the scene about Phillip season as more loyalty than actual affection, I remember feeling that Mulan always had a thing for Aurora. If she had feelings for Phillip she would have told him not talk to Aurora about it

This show is more and more ridiculous

This comment is directed to moschino8; they are not forcing a gay storyline. They are just incorporating real life events.

So you say: “Why are they forcing these straight storylines during heterosexual storyline during movies or tv shows?”

As far as other comments:
If people think this is so far fetched, why are you watching this? Just observe your surroundings, listen to the gossip of the daily drama in your own family and/or work place, makes Once Upon a Time even closer to reality…
